Day 723 - Trump's 21-point Gaza plan, broken down
Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world.
US bureau chief Jacob Magid joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode.
We start with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech on Friday at the UN General Assembly. Magid describes the atmosphere in the room and points out that since Netanyahu was the first speaker of the session, in order to stage a dramatic emptying of the hall, the nations' delegates needed to be punctual -- just to walk out. We learn about what Netanyahu said and hear about the gimmicks used in his delivery.
In the second half of the program, we discuss the 21-point US proposal for ending the war in Gaza, which encourages Palestinians to remain in the Strip and provides for the creation of a pathway to a future Palestinian state, according to a verified copy of the plan obtained by Magid.
We delve into the plan, point by point, and Magid provides commentary on some of the more confusing or vague statements.
Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.
